Some days may feel productive and others may not, but none of that changes how much I believe in your effort and growth.
You handled that better than you probably realize. I'm proud of how you kept trying.
I hope you can separate this setback from your sense of self. Something went differently than you wanted, but that is not the whole story of your progress.

Be patient with your progress.
I hope your trust in God gives you room to breathe, reflect, and move forward at a manageable pace. There is no need to force certainty before it comes.
Focus on today, and let tomorrow wait until it gets here.
I believe in you, especially on the harder days.
